Quite often you’ll find that the office you work in is “brightened” up by putting in some artwork, which is not always to everyone’s tastes. But when you’re designers yourself then you have the advantage of just being able to build your own piece of office art. This is what Wasaw-based art collective Platige Image did in collaboration with design studioBridge, creating an interactive installation in their lobby.
The piece was algorithmically-designed into a 3D-printed cellular structure that integrates video mapping, creating animations from data pooled from the sculpture’s surroundings in real-time using the Kinect and geometry data. As well as looking good it also acts as a spatial canvas for the artists at Platige Image to showcase their work.
“The installation begins to exhibit multiple behaviors when people are present in the lobby.” notes Adam Wierzchowski from Platigue Image. ”They become an attractor for the projection which mirrors their silhouettes when they remain in front of it for a while. It warms up with light and color adding a very human touch to the workplace.

Red Beach, China
Red Beach is located in the Liaohe River Delta, about 30 kilometers southwest of Panjin City in China. The beach’s unique color is caused by a type of plant called Suaeda vera or Shrubby Sea-blite which is a coastal species that flourishes in the saline-alkali soil. The plant remains green during the summer but in the fall, when the plant has matured, it takes on a deep red color creating a stunning red sea landscape. Most of Red Beach is a nature reserve and closed to the public. Only a small, remote section is open to tourists.
